What are Christian men called to?
In our Western world of rugged individualism, Christians tend to think of God’s call on their lives as personal and even private. We often equate our job or training with God’s call – He made us nurses or designed us for sales. While some believers speak with vivid assurance of God’s personal call, others struggle because they haven’t had any spiritual eye-opening direction and feel they are living without purpose or fulfillment.
The Bible shows us that the call of God is corporate and communal. Every person has an individual role to play within the community of believers—the church. But how are we to live out our faith in this way? What is our reason for living, the goal of the church, and the ultimate intent of salvation? Where do we belong in God’s purpose and plan, and how do we fit into the Biblical story? God’s Word is rich and clear in answering these questions and is the foundation for this men’s Bible study.
